This transcription system has been installed in blind schools to support reading, writing and printing tasks. Braille-ready texts are made available online in 12 languages at www. Braille-aids.com.

In addition, the user, after browsing a website, can listen to its content through Text to speech system and read the content through Text to Braille system.
